I have had period symptoms but no period, and they've been late for 3 days. My last period began on February 12, and I am not on any contraceptives or medications, only taking vitamins. I haven't been sexually active, so I know I'm not pregnant. I'm 23 years old, generally have regular periods, and have been experiencing anxiety and abdominal cramps. I also have vaginal itching and swelling, with a white/light yellow discharge but no strong odor. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I had a D-dimer test done and it came back at 0.52, with a normal range being 0.49 or less. I am 18 weeks pregnant and had COVID-19 at 9-10 weeks of pregnancy. Should I be concerned about this D-dimer level during pregnancy, especially given my history of COVID-19, and is there a specific level I should be alert for regarding possible clotting issues?
